'DataHand Professional II' keyboards and accessories by DataHand Systems Inc

Object No. 2004/59/1

The DataHand computer keyboard consists of two small units, one for each hand. The units are specially designed for maximum typing speed, while minimising the risk of repetitive strain injury (RSI). This is achieved by ensuring that each hand remains relatively still, while tiny movements of individual fingers activate QWERTY keys. The DataHand significantly reduces the impact of keying to the hands, wrists, elbow, neck, shoulders and back. In appearance the DataHand is unlike any other computer keyboard and represents the most advanced re-conceptualisation of a keyboard design presently (2003) available.
